Prince Harry Gay Kiss, Donal Og Cusack Wonders Why More Athletes Don’t Come Out, Will Young, Tom Brady Irons, Chad White Nudes, Candy

21 year old Rocky Bennett happened upon royal red headed rascal Prince Harry a Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England bar, Liquid, the Prince and other pilot trainees unwinding after a long day, and Bennett, gay, offered to buy Harry a beer in exchange for a kiss, and the third in line to the throne obliged. Bennett says that “he went up to him and told him I would love to buy him a drink, if he gave me a kiss, Harry just burst out laughing, threw his arms around me and kissed me on the left cheek, Bennett adding that he is “not going to wash” his face for at least a month.

Donal Og Cusack, the iconic Irish hurling, says of his matter of fact coming out that “there was no torment or agonising. Once I knew what I was, I just got on with life, got on with hurling.” Cusack, a brave and brilliantly honest man, whose biography Come What May was recently published, says that he doesn’t “understand myself why it seems to be more difficult for sports people to come out than for people in other walks of life, but hurling and football exist in every corner of Ireland and there must be a hell of a lot of teenagers and men and women who struggle with this more that I have. If a hurler from a small village in Cork can do it, maybe it isn’t so hard after all.”

Will Young, openly gay Pop Idol star, releases a greatest album which contains the hit Hopes and Fears, the video for which featured Young as a pregnant man, and he talks about his singing career, acting, and the very bigoted Nick Griffin.

More from inside the December GQ magazine Men of the Year issue, including an intense Chris Pine, the trio of hotness that is True Blood’s Alexander Skarsgard, Ryan Kwanten, and Stephen Moyer, and a blissfully domesticated Tom Brady, ironing, with arms of steel.
